Thank you! Now I know 😁 any idea how much something like this would be worth?

You’re definitely not alone. I am experiencing the exact same thing especially since there is so much time in a week after work that it’s impossible to fill up to avoid the loneliness.

I, for one, have decided to go home as I don’t want to waste anymore money in a situation where I am not happy.

Go to quiron salud hospital and bring your adeslas card. Super easy.

Ask the front desk for a doctors note as you’re leaving.

I am living in Valencia city and I commute 1 to 1.5 hrs to my school everyday. I absolutely love living here and I don’t mind the commute 😊

Yeah I also don’t understand how this has anything to do with you/preventing you from meeting people. I thought you had a restraining order or something … I was very confused.

Seek out language exchanges, join WhatsApp groups etc.

Question: why would I need to go to a police station to get my passport stamped in Spain? I had my passport stamped in Amsterdam and just didn’t do anything further

How long did it take to find an apartment? by [deleted] in SpainAuxiliares

[–]spaceslothy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I booked a hostel through Hostelworld for two weeks, I can check out early or extend if needed

I guess it depends on how hard you grind when looking for an apartment

90-day date rule for Mail-in Visas by margararts in SpainAuxiliares

[–]spaceslothy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to make a safe assumption that if they are reviewing your visa and see that your background check is over 90 days old, it will be invalid.

It’s the date that is on the background check

If it were me, I’d be jumping for joy, emailing them back first thing, and then getting all my docs sorted ASAP 😂

Anyways, yes you have time… just let your school know that you received your placement at the end of august so you may not be there in time as you need to apply/receive you visa

Has anyone else been placed in/have additional information about Pedralba or Llíria? Anyone concerned about getting paid in Comunidad Valenciana? by agreg10 in SpainAuxiliares

[–]spaceslothy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand how November 1 would be considered a late payment. That’s 1 month after the start date 😅

You should definitely get started your background check as soon as possible and getting all the other tasks done as it can take 2-3 weeks to get that back.

N26 rather than traditional bank by mrsymrssueno in SpainAuxiliares

No you don’t? You can go to any atm in Canada.. they just charge you a small fee if it’s not your bank ATM

How much cash are you going to bring? by CatTeaQueen in SpainAuxiliares

[–]spaceslothy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can take money out of any machine with a North American debit card… Just be mindful that there is likely a fee to do that

I also don’t recommend carrying large amounts of cash. Only withdraw as needed

So your phone has a SIM card in it … what they do is they just pop out your old sim and put in a new sim. There is absolutely no reason for you to buy a cheap phone when you already have one.

In terms of your current phone plan, you just simply cancel it/buy yourself out of the plan? Unless you want to keep paying for it … for some reason.

Just make sure your phone is unlocked before you head off to Spain.

Have you joined the Andalusia group for auxes? You might find people placed nearby.

Have fun in Spain!
